The women's bathrooms were spectacularly clean with nice decor inside. I felt like I was at someone's house instead of a church. The fellowship hall, which I presume can be used as a gym as well, was fairly big and open. Great convinent location. There are lots of parking spaces to choose from as well.

I was drawn here by the historical markers that are placed across the street where the first church…read morewas originally built. There are three markers in a half circle. The cemetery is adjacent. "The first Sardis church meeting house was built of logs near this site in 1796. In the 1800's, wood frame sanctuaries and Sardis Academy were built on the property. A red brick church with a bell tower was built on the west side of Sardis Road in 1907 and served congregations until 1960 when it was replaced by the present sanctuary. Sardis Road and many features in the community have taken their names from Sardis Church and cemetery. The name Sardis comes from the New Testament church in Lycia in Asia Minor. It is one of the seven churches addressed in the Book of Revelation. 'To the angel of the church in Sardis... listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches.' Revelation 3:1,22" A second marker reads, "An important factor in the location of the earliest Sardis Church was a nearby spring with an abundant flow of cold, clear water. Located about 600 feet northeast, the spring was acquired from John Kirkpatrick on April 2, 1799. Water from the spring was used for drinking and baptisms. It flowed freely until September 2, 1989 when Hurricane Hugo toppled trees and disturbed its source. 'I have baptized you with water; but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.' Mark 1:8" The third marker reads, "The adjoining 'old' cemetery traces its roots to the founding of Sardis Church in 1790. The first persons known to be buried here was James Boyce (Boyes) on August 29, 1803. The 'new' cemetery on the west side of Sardis Road was started in the later 1800's and continues to serve families of the congregation. 'I am ascending to my father and your father, to my God and your God.' John 20:17" The cemetery itself (maybe it should be a separate business?) is beautiful and very well kept. It is one of the oldest int he Charlotte area and has some beautiful headstones and markers. [Review 13715 overall, 1035 of 2020, number 2493 in North Carolina.]

Wonderful preschool program!!!! Both music directors are amazing! The director of the contemporary…read moredoes an absolutely wonderful job with instrumental and music choices. There are rocking chairs and toys in the back and a complimentary food, juice, and coffee bar that you may visit as you desire. Of course, there is Sunday school for nursery to the golden years. The traditional choir is just beautiful and the organist so talented. The sanctuary is so pretty. Both music types are impressive, so it's simply your choice! At 8:45 there is an short, relaxed atmosphere, but beautiful service in the Chapel (to the left of the sanctuary) My favorite! Last, but not least the sermons reach both spiritual and social issues, by the Pastor, Dr Bob Henderson and are wonderful. My favorite speaker is Rev. Watson. She is a very spiritual speaker! You will love it here!
